They like well-drained soil and full to part sun with average summer water. Short-lived, they reseed easily establishing long-lived colonies. Frost hardy in USDA zone 2. 4in @ $3 Malvaceae Lindelofia longiflora Bright blue flowered cousin of a forget-me-not which blooms from late spring to frost. Long-live perennial, clumping to 2 ft by 2 ft in rich, moist soil in a half shady spot– think woodland. Great for a border that gets some water, but not much attention otherwise. Hardy to 25 below. 6in @ $12 Boraginaceae Physocarpus opulifolius 'Dart's Gold' golden ninebark Its golden foliage highlights the pure white, fragrant, summer flowers and brilliant red fruit in autumn. Peeling bark adds interest to this durable hedging plant or specimen, deciduous, to 5 ft tall and wide, smaller than the species. Out of the hottest afternoon sun seems to suit it best for foliage color. Can take a bit of drought, but best with a little summer water. Takes will to pruning. Frost hardy in USDA zone 2. 1g @ $12, 2g @ $22 Rosaceae Rosa glauca red leaf rose Grown as much for its foliage as its flowers this deciduous shrub, to 6 ft tall x 5 ft wide, has glaucous blue foliage and, in June, single pink flowers with white centers. Lovely rose hips follow and remain through the winter.

    Visit to Adelaide Botanic Garden Adelaide, South Australia 23-24 th September 2006 Laura Fagan, Brad Howlett, Corina Till, Melanie Walker (Crop & Food Research) Background A visit was made to Adelaide Botanic Garden as part of the B3 IO3.5 Expatriate Plant Communities project. John Sandham, Collections Development Officer (see site visit report 28 Sept 06_Barratt) organised a garden duty officer, Enzo Vidoni, to guide the visit by Laura Fagan. Figure 1. Main entrance to Adelaide Botanic Figure 2. Wollemia Garden off Botanic Road. nobilis The Adelaide Botanic Garden is an historic garden on the Adelaide Plains with a dry Mediterranean climate and alkaline soils. The original 16 hectare (41 acre) garden was first opened to the public in 1857. Acquired by the Adelaide Botanic Garden in 1866, the adjacent Botanic Park is a glorious 34 hectare green oasis within easy walking distance of the Adelaide CBD. It is flanked on the Botanic Garden side by a stately avenue of Plane trees which were planted in 1874, and on the northern side by the River Torrens and the Adelaide Zoo. Century old Moreton Bay Fig trees from Queensland with their huge trunks and gnarled buttress roots add to the special quality of Botanic Park. The garden contains the oldest Australian forest tree species in the country including a single specimen of Wollemia nobilis and the largest Plain tree. Native and exotic plant collections are displayed including palms, cycads, bromeliads and many spectacular mature trees and shrubs. Rainforest species are grown in the temperate Australian forest and the Bicentennial Conservatory for tropical plants.

However, accurate plant identification from artefacts is problematic, since textile production, age, dirt and/or conservation treatments obscure morphological features, and specimen size and/or ethical considerations hamper modern analytical methods. This study tested the efficacy of polarised light microscopy (PLM) in the identification of New Zealand plant species commonly used in Māori textiles, and demonstrates that morphological and birefringent features observed using PLM have the potential to distinguish between- and within- plant genera. KEYWORDS Māori textiles, New Zealand flax, Phormium, Cordyline, Freycinetia, sign of elongation, modified Herzog test, plant material identification INTRODUCTION Accurate plant material identification is critical for advancing study of material culture, since an object’s composition provides an insight into its origin, additionally revealing important cultural information such as human interactions and emigration pathways (Schaffer 1981; Jakes et al. 1994). However, one of the main challenges for accurate identification of plant species in textile artefacts is the scarcity of distinct morphological features, evident from whole plants or individual leaves (e.g.
